Speak No Evil by ihcihc(f): 11:44pm On May 11, 2007
we should try not to pollute ourselves or eachother with negative words. Do not let yourself be overcome by evil but overcome evil with good.

Im sure most of us grew up in a negative environment( home, school, work etc) and the experience can bring about negative thinking and it doesnt help when you hang around people that are negative as well.

Most people and situations have a mixture of good and bad in them but God does not choose to magnify the bad in us so why do we choose to magnify the bad in others ? Love covers a multiple of sins.

This isnt talking about never acknowledging the bad things in this life but the thought that occupy our minds and also what comes out of our mouth.

we dnt hav to run to someone everytime to bitch about what the person has done. Again im not saying we shldnt talk about our problems but speak with PURPOSE!

Ive noticed it is hard not to talk about our problems because we want pity and in most cases we are wearing out people with our negative report becasue they dnt want to hear it ova and ova.
we hav a responsibility not to give negative reports and dnt to receive them. It is our responsibility to help eachother in a Godly way. lets magnify the good by being positive in our outlook, words and actions.

lets do away with slander, backbiting etc. when we speak evil of other people its usually because we think we are better than them, which can be our insercurities.

So people in chrsit, the next time u see a fine sister/brother in any sitaution, could be a in party etc. dnt roll your eyes or give evil looks instead compliment them.
Let God spk thru us. Remember we are not to use our mouths to hurt, break down or depress , but rather to heal restore and uplift
